Start by getting your dog to lie down. Hold a treat near their nose and slowly move it over their shoulder. Your dog will naturally follow the treat, causing them to roll over.
Use a verbal cue like 'roll over' as they follow the treat. Reward them with the treat and praise when they complete the roll. Practice this trick in short sessions for best results.
If your dog struggles, break the trick down into smaller steps. Reward any progress towards rolling over. Be patient and keep training sessions positive and fun.
Consistency is key in teaching your dog new tricks. Practice regularly and be encouraging. Remember, every dog learns at their own pace, so celebrate small victories along the way.
Once your dog has mastered rolling over, you can impress your friends and family with their new trick. Use positive reinforcement to reinforce good behavior and keep training enjoyable.
Teaching your dog to roll over strengthens your bond and provides mental stimulation. Enjoy the process of training together and watch your furry friend shine!
